FIND/GREP problem
When I enter the command below grep appears to be returning a file it shouldn't.
find . -name "*.*" -exec grep "testing" {} /dev/null \; .  ps3Mailfile./SSI.ksh: # create TECHOUT dummy for test for testing purposes ./ftprimi1.ksh:# before running job in prod... change FTP to go to rimi instead of rad box(testing) ./pharm_alert.ksh:# send mail for testing, but not in prod The file, ops3Mailfile does not contain the search string testing, why does this command continually pull this file? If I rerun the above using -type option instead of -name for the find command then the proper files are returned. Also, if you look at the path returned for this file it lists . ps3MailFile instead of ./ops3MailFile as one would expect.Anyone have any ideas why this file is returned? If you use grep on this directory without the find then the proper list of files is returned. Thanks D
